ActionScript 2.0 :: [Flash CS3] Creating An Interactive Slideshow?
Feb 7, 2008
What I try to make in Flash is some kind of interactive slideshow, with .swf files instead of static images. I want to have kind of control pannel with buttons numbered from 1 to n, always visible at the front layer. In the background, there will be swf files that change, for example, every 30 seconds. And each change consists of fade in and fade out effect of the swf container (and so the loaded swf file itself). During the swf changes, the buttons should change too by switching their states from 0 to 1 and so on. User should be able to skip to any frame he wants by clicking the corresponding button.This is the code I already have:
Code:
// Preparation
button1_mc.framenumber_txt.text = "1";
[code].....

I am pretty new to flash but I am kind of getting the hang of things. I am trying to create a interactive slideshow in flash that will not end up on the web. These are three quick questions I currently have. Thanks for any help you can provide
1. Let's say I have an icon of a person in my flash file, how can I make it so that when my moves rolls over the person a thinking bubble appears and when it rolls off the bubble disappears?
2. If I have a small image of a page version of a .pdf file in my flash file, how can I make it so that when the little .pdf page icon is click the .pdf file is launched?
3. I understand how to create a square button over text and mess with its up/down/over/click settings, but I am wondering how I can do something like change the color of the text when it is clicked or when the mouse is over it? Right now I only know how to change the color of the square button.

I'm looking to display some data in the form of charts (line graphs, pie charts etc). I also require them to have a certain amount of interactivity (pan, zoom etc.).
For these requirements, will Adobe Flex be enough for me, or would I need to use flash?
A little research told me that building charts in Flex is easy, but can they be made interactive without using Flash?

I need to create flash interactive animation for one one of my regular clients, which should look and work similar to example bellow: Link This is how my clients product (shirt) should look like and what sections should be editable: [URL] Basically it should work this way:
1. End user chooses some element of shirt which he would like to edit (for example collar)
2. When he clicks on that element, popup windows shows offering two main options: to change color and graphic (texture or pattern), same as on nike store customize example
3. After user changes one section (collar) he goes to other section (lets say sleeve) and so on
4. User should be able to zoom in or zoom out that shirt and also if it is possible to rotate it in 4-5 positions
5. At the end it should be able to save that work (and load it if he wants to later ) and be able to print it.
I have made many animations, games, banners and similar using Macromedia Flash MX and Adobe Flash so I am not a flash newbie but this is a first time I am dealing with this type of work.I know that there is no step by step tutorial for this kind of custom interactive animation. how to create these three first steps (1. 2. 3). Regarding steps (4.) and (5.) I think I could realize it (zoom in, zoom out, rotate movieclip, save in database and print screen), because I had some previous experience regarding this part.

I have an interactive slideshow that I need to do which display pictures. Upon hitting the "next" or "previous" button one pictures needs to slide off to the left with motion blur and easing while the next one comes on from the right.
Sounds simple enough right!
As far as I have been able to find out, the best way to do this would be using XML. I have looked at a ton of tutorials on xml for AS3 and I can't seem to adapt them to match what I am trying to do. There seems to be so many different ways that one can go about loading xml and all of them are different so I don't see how to make the different tutorials integrate into what I need. I found tutorials that do pictures and text, or just text, or pictures that go automatically but not with buttons etc - and what I need is just pictures with buttons and motion easing (which I can probably figure out once I learn how to load the xml pics and get them moving with buttons).
I was not expecting to get some code that I could just copy and paste but I have not been able to figure out to adjust the code to fit what I need.
I am doing the AS in an .as file and I am trying not to put any AS in the fla document because this slideshow is just one section of a bigger framework.

I am a multimedia student and I want to create an interactive slide show to put in the Portfolio section of my web site. How would I do that? Would it be easier to do in Dreamweaver CS5 or create in After effects then import in Dreamweaver? I have never done slideshows. What I want; is a slide show of my work to scroll on the screen, when the person hovers their mouse over the picture from left to right, the slideshow moves, when you click on a specific image, you are able to see the image in a bigger size.

I'd like the slideshow to have a black boarder box with a white background. I've got two buttons which I have made in Photoshop for previous and next image. I want the background of the slideshow to be white and images to be placed into this box for the user to be able to manually go through the images.

I am creating a project which involves the visualisation of signals and timeline, so I am looking for a charting program which allows me to zoom in and zoom out and with additional functionality e.g. drag and drop or highlight the area.
I have no preference whether it should be WinForms or Web apps, and I am fine to program in either Flash or Silverlight. So I would like to see if you guys can recommend some tools for use.

I am a member of a clan on a popular gaming website. I'd like to make fully interactive flash videos detailing certain game concepts. Is it possible to do this with screenshots (there are some drop down menus) or would I have to remodel the website in Flash?Basically, I'd like to know how to make it so I can tell the user to click a certain link and take a certain step, we've all seen those types of interactive tutorials.

I have a website which i have built and work on alot, and i would like to create a sort of interactive map (the site is a surf webcam site, and i would love this map to be of the uk, and when you click on certain areas, it zooms in in a sort of google earth type thing, then showing locations of my cameras which the users can click to go to the correct page.) Now I did make something like this ( without the spinny stuff) using jquery and hiding divs etc, but I think to get the best effect would be to make some sort of flash applet. Now I am a complete begineer with flash.

I've been working creating an interactive display map for a client. I've figured out the controls I'd like to use for moving the map, but I'm having trouble with the zooming features.
What I'd like to do is have the user click on the "+" button to zoom in and the "-" button to zoom out. The problem is the map is not centered when the user clicks either button?
Any ideas how I can fix this, or improve it?

For the last couple of weeks, i've been trying to develope an interactive yearbook for my school. Im using an external XML, and trying to push all the data in the xml to assigned arrays. Also im trying to use a for loop to create empty movie clips. This empty clips will serve as "pages" if the total number of students is greater than 25. Also, on these pages im trying to attachMovie to a specific x, and Y, as you'll see in my source code.
Other than that, i can not figure out where im going wrong.When i first try to publish it, it gives me an error saying that the path is undefined, and will not load ANYTHING. if i make a few changes, it just sits there blanky.

I am currently working on a map of the US that is interactive. My goal is to be able to mouse over the states and have them turn red and then a window with contact information will open at your mouse when clicked. I am running into a few problems. I dont know the process for creating a color tween for my movieclips. my solution was to make a copy of the states, color them red and place them behind the gray ones and attatch an event listener to all the states that lowers their alpha when moused over. thats not really the problem though. for my code that i have used to call in the window is as follows. I will use texas as an example.

I'm new to Actionscript 3.0 and I want to create an interactive menu. On the left as I hover over the button "products" I want a sub menu to come into view (as seen in the graphic below). I've created all the graphics but there are a lot of translation issues.
Here is the code I've used:
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
var startY:Number = productsSub_mc._DisplayObject.y;
var myTween:Tween;
var myTween2:Tween;
[Code] .....
"productsSub_mc" is the sub menu I created as a movie clip. Within that movie clip is another button labeled "videos". When I run the preview, I get the following error:
1084: Syntax error: expecting rightparen before semicolon.

I am creating an interactive animation of a cat you can stroke, rub, poke etc. I have implemented some basic functions in an attempt to recognize the different gestures, I am using the mouse down and mouse up events to track the duration and distance of the click.
My problem with this is that the 'distance' is measured from the start point and end point of the click, so if it ends near where it started you won't be able to tell how many times the click has 'rubbed' back and forth. Is there anyway to track the distance based on the full path of the click?

I am working on a project where I need an interactive matrix of 500x500 clickable lements. I thought this would be an easy task in actionscript3 but boy was I wrong. was able to create a matrix where each element was a Sprite object with attached Mouse click event. But here the performance problems begin. FlashPlayer10 can handle up to 100x100 matrix, but when I increase my matrix I start getting script timeout in browser player... Here is how my "unfinished" matrix looks like.
So how should I approach this problem? I was hoping flash will be able to handle so many elements, but I guess I was wrong. I want to have a pan control to pan around for objects off screen and of course zoom in/out control.It's true I'm not very professional in Flahs and actionscript but a friend who is told me this would be no problem implementing in AS3? I need this in flash as the thing needs to be hosted on website (unless there is a better tool for doing something like this...).

I am trying to create a flash program that will create a slideshow on the fly. I have a collection of music and images that I want to put in the show. The program will pick a piece to play randomly and the next image to show is also picked randomly. However, the speed at which the images will be shown in the show is decided by the tempo/speed/mood of the music at that moment. In one piece of music there will faster and slower movement, and the slide will fade in sooner if the music is faster and vice versa. The show will keep running until the program quits.

I am trying to create a full-frame photo slideshow/photo transition like the one on this site-It shows a random background photo each time a link is clicked and has a nice diagonal "wipe" effect for a transition. Then photos of their work are shown when exploring that section. How would I generate the random photos and transition effect upon clicking a link?

I understand that there are many methods to creating a slideshow on a website, but that isn't my question. What I really want to know is what is the most mainstream method of creating a slideshow on a website.What do you recommend?So far I've seen Jquery, Javascript, CSS & DHTML, and Flash. The first thing that comes to mind for me is flash, then second Javascript.

this relates to the tutorial posted by kirupa on creating an image slideshow using xml with actionscript: [URL] this slideshow is great, but i'm wondering whether it is possible to start it in the middle of the sequence. so, for instance could one button load a swf file with code that would start the slideshow at, say, frame 5 out of 10? i understand how the actionscript for this works, but am running into deadends on how to get the xml more specific. oh, and i'm using flash 8 for this.
